Swaby family in Beverley
« on: Thursday 27 August 09 16:27 BST (UK) »
Please can anyone help me find my 4 times Great Grandmother Ann Swaby.  According to census information she was born in Beverley c 1788.  She married John Cope in St Mary's Beverley 12 July 1807.  I have been unable to find her baptism at Beverley but have found a baptism for a Nancy Swaby Jan 13 1788.  Can anyone check the Bishop's transcripts to see if the name Nancy is recorded there?  Or can I presume that the names Ann and Nancy are the same?

Or is there any record of a Nancy Swaby either being married or buried?

Also, can anyone tell me if there is a Swaby's yard in Beverley?

I will be very greatful for any help received.

Thank You.

Peramar, I cannot answer the first few questions re Ann/Nancy but I can tell you there is a Swabys Yard in Beverley.

Hello Dee

Thanks for the information about Swaby's Yard.  Do you know anything about it such as where it is or any of the history of it?
